I'm almost ready for my big presentation to my last Web Design class -- of course this meant a late night and less than five hours sleep, but still, I'm mostly ready.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I've been at work for an hour. I'm getting frustrated because there are no internets yet this morning.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Scola, you were in my dream last night. You killed a tarantula for me. Seriously. It was creeping around on the floor, and I was freaking out, and you tried to explain to me that they make great pets, but I kept freaking out, so you went over and stepped on it, and then scooped it up in a paper towel and took it out to the trash.
I was very very grateful. You are my hero.
That was followed immediately by the dream where I have to take college final exams for classes I never attended. I fucking HATE that dream.

They do!

You totally owe me new shoes.
I fucking HATE that dream.

Punishingly Intricate
I've been trying all morning to recreate the long email about the asshole co-worker run in had Friday that I wrote to my boss after I got home from work that day and then lost in a tragic logging out incident.
It's giving me headache. And I don't have enough coffee.
In less cranky news, my 6-week old niece who I saw yesterday has started smiling!

I hate today. Overslept, almost called in sick, and came to work to find a "do this task, refer to the documentation!" e-mail from supervisor B, who 1) writes the world's worst documentation, and 2) refers me to the documentation every time I ask a question, which 3) makes me want to choke a bitch, because I'm asking questions that aren't covered in the goddamn documentation, motherfucker!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Ah man, I was hoping Monday was being better behaved this week.
Guess not.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I realized that even though I'm currently last in my office NCAA pool, I am poised to leap ahead in the next round. So that's good.
Also, I actually did the thing that I said I would do first thing this morning, so that's also good.
